The Deepening Snow - Burl Ives (布勒·埃夫斯)[00:00:00]
It's snowing out there in[00:00:08]
The gloaming[00:00:11]
I've sat here and watched[00:00:14]
It all night[00:00:17]
The kids will be thrilled[00:00:21]
When they awaken[00:00:25]
And look at the fields[00:00:28]
Deep and white[00:00:31]
But the snow makes me[00:00:35]
Think of my darling[00:00:37]
For he hated the snow and the cold[00:00:42]
Now he lies in a grave[00:00:49]
Back in Knoxville[00:00:52]
With a headstone that's[00:00:56]
Just one year old[00:00:58]
Won't you please make the winter[00:01:03]
Go quick Lord so the flowers[00:01:07]
Around him can grow[00:01:12]
For I can't stand the thought of[00:01:17]
My darling lying there[00:01:21]
In the deepening snow[00:01:26]
Little Jimmy climbs up on my knee[00:01:31]
Now says mommie[00:01:35]
What causes the snow[00:01:40]
And I tell the wonderful father[00:01:45]
Who cares for us all here below[00:01:52]
Then I hold him so close and[00:01:59]
I kiss him and he kissing[00:02:02]
Back doesn't know[00:02:08]
That my kiss is meant for her mother[00:02:13]
Lying there in the deepening snow[00:02:20]
Won't you please make the winter[00:02:26]
Go quick Lord so the flowers[00:02:30]
Around him can grow[00:02:36]
For I can't stand the thought[00:02:41]
Of my darling lying there[00:02:44]
In the deepening snow[00:02:49]
